“Many of the charges brought forth are based on the word of a man who made a fortune by lying.

- Miami president Donna Shalala.

Just a day after canning an enforcement VP over irregularities in the Suits From Indianapolis’ (Formerly Kansas) investigation of Miami, the NCAA formally accused the Canes of the dreaded “lack of institutional control” charge.

The institutional-control charge is typically one of the most severe the NCAA can bring after an investigation of rules violations.

TAH DAMN GOOD CAUSE OF THE MONTH

NORTHERN HAITI HOPE FOUNDATION: After our recent trip to Haiti, we vowed to do more to help. Clean water is a critical issue for all Haitians. It's particularly problematic for those in rural areas. For $2,000 to $5,000 we can build a new well in a rural village as part of a program facilitated by the St. Barthelemy School and the Warrenton, VA Rotary. Send your donation to Wells of Health and Hope, c/o GPetty-VTA, 38 Garrett Street, Warrenton, VA 20186 and keep your eye on T.A.H. for progress reports. Thanks! CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR MORE INFO.
